Biblical Manuscript

A biblical manuscript is an ancient handwritten document containing texts from the Bible. These manuscripts were created before the invention of printing, often using materials like parchment or papyrus. They vary in age, language, and style, and are critical for understanding the history and evolution of biblical texts. Scholars study these manuscripts to analyze their content, determine their authenticity, and trace how biblical stories and teachings have been preserved and transmitted over time. Notable examples include the Dead Sea Scrolls and early Christian copies of the New Testament.
